Cakaudrove Province (Northern Division)

Cakaudrove Province - Lands of Abundance

Cakaudrove province occupies the south-eastern part of Vanua Levu and also includes the islands of Taveuni, Rabi, Kioa and Qamea as well as a few others. It is served by major road networks and while some areas still use punts and horses, major road building programs are under way.

Given the export potential of Cakaudrove province, this is understandable as is the hydro-electrification scheme projects being undertaken on Taveuni.

The province is abundant in taro, kava, copra and a host of other produce, and features fabulous vistas. It covers about 2,816 square kilometers, and the 2007 census recorded a population of about 49,350. Its major town is Savusavu, which is also a port of entry into the Fiji group.

Cakaudrove province is part of the Tovata confederacy, one of the three traditional chiefly hierarchies of Fiji.

Here is a summary of the 16 districts in Cakaudrove province, with village details and their 'ai cavuti' or titles.
